The required late-lunch reading
Sheila has a long essay on one of my favorite actors in his best movie: William Holden in Stalag 17.
And for truly crappy movies? Rocket Jones---but of course. And don't forget Truly Bad Films where our old pal Liz, hombre in chief Pep, and yours truly (if I can ever find the damn entry code!) dish out the lowest of the low from the greatest truly bad films of all time. I'm a true weasel, as I'm overdue to Liz on my "why Helen Hunt is the greatest actress of all time" post by, oh, about six months now. Like I say, I'm a weasel.

Network to this day blows me away. But it's in Stalag 17 that he is really fantastic - and he makes you feel like nobody else could play that role but him.

Ordinarily he was insane, but he had lucid moments when he was merely stupid. Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
